The t20 world cup cricket tournament is now nearing its climax. india and south africa will play a multi-Test series in the final on saturday at 8 PM IST. The match is played at the traditional barbados cricket Ground. Several matches in the series were affected by rain and tested the patience of the fans. In this situation, a storm is centered in the area of barbados, where the final match will take place, according to the Meteorological Department. The storm was 1300 miles southeast of barbados on friday night. It is reported that it is centered at a distance. It is forecast to become a severe cyclone on saturday morning. As a result, heavy rains are currently falling in Barbados.
The severe storm is expected to make landfall on sunday night. Due to this, it is predicted that there is a possibility of flooding in Barbados. Due to this, the question has arisen that the final match between india and south africa will be held. If the match is not played today, the match will be played again on Reserve Day tomorrow. But as the storm is expected to make landfall on sunday, the ICC has been forced to call off the tournament today. Also, the safety of the players and the fans is now in question as it belongs to the extreme storm category.
Perhaps india and south africa will share the trophy if the tournament is canceled. As a result, ICC has decided that at least 10 overs should be bowled in today's match. For this, the ICC has planned to increase the time from the end of the match by one and a half hours and hold the match within that time.
